The trailer is old, dating back to Aug. 21, 2012 by MrKrustic, but it was viewed over 3,000 times and shows Tatum's ability to be sexy and have those brooding looks like 27-year-old sexy billionaire Christian Grey would have. Many of the scene shots in the trailer are from his movie "Dear John," also starring Amanda Seyfried, so there is no surprise she stars as Ana Steele. [WATCH BELOW]

Tatum's new role in movie "White House Down" also shows that he could be tough and protective over 22-year-old innocent college grad Ana Steele. When he played a male dancer in "Magic Mike," his sex appeal peaked and we know he has the body. Also, His age is also close to Christian; he's a sexy, confident 33-year-old. And, let's not forget he was People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive.

Back in July 2012, Tatum revealed that he would play Christian Grey if his wife, Jenna Dewan-Tatum, were Ana Steele.

According to the Daily Mail, when asked if he would play the protagonist in the adaptation in an interview with U.K. Glamour Magazine, he responded: "1) Yes. 2) I'd only be allowed if my wife was Ana. She's read the books so I don't think she'd be impressed if she couldn't be Ana!"

He then said, "She's read the books so I don't think she'd be impressed if she couldn't be Ana!"

She added, "And the only person he wants to have sex with is his wife, Jenna [Dewan-Tatum]. He's the most loyal husband." Which is a good quality for Christian since we know how loyal and devoted he is to keeping Ana Steele all his.

PolicyMicsaid of the actor playing Christian Grey: "Tatum has been thrust into the spotlight for his performance in Magic Mike as an exotic male dancer, which some pundits are saying will make him the ideal actor to play in the 50 Shades of Grey movie, which is full of steamy sex scenes."

Even though he has a lot of female fans, Tatum will have to go against the bigger fan-favorites for CG, which includes Matt Bomer, Ian Somerhalder, Henry Cavill, Robert Pattinson, Ryan Gosling, and Alexander Skarsgard.
